ЕМИЛИЯ - СМЕЛИТЕ 2027
In 2027, Emilia will face the public with her largest project to date. On March 20, 2027, Arena 8888 Sofia will become the home of "BRAVE 2027" - an event that builds on her previous stage projects and sets a new scale in her live performances. The concert is conceived as a complete experience that goes beyond the standard show and builds its own visual and emotional world.
On March 20, at Arena 8888, Sofia Emilia will perform together with her musicians, in the company of whom she will present both her greatest hits and completely new music in impressive live arrangements.
Behind this scale is a long road built with consistency, sense and respect for the audience. Over the years, Emilia established herself as one of the most recognizable and beloved voices on the Bulgarian scene, with a series of hits that became the soundtrack of different generations. Her ability to change without losing her identity makes her an artist who is not just present, but leaves a mark.
"BRAVE 2027" is a natural continuation of this path - a request for scope, development and courage to be yourself.
Why fans are buzzing: the title BRAVE 2027 nods to Emilia’s own discography. Back in 2012 she released the studio album “Smelite si imat vsichko” (The Brave Have It All). Since then, she’s continued to reinvent her sound with the albums “Akula” (2020) and “Turbulence” (2023), so you can expect the setlist to sweep from early-era favorites to her most recent material, shaped for a big live band and arena dynamics.
Emilia’s stagecraft has been forged on major national tours and TV spectacles through the years, including multiple editions of the Planeta tours. That live mileage shows: she paces a show with instinct for drama, flips seamlessly between glossy club beats and sweeping ballads, and treats vocals as the centerpiece rather than decoration. BRAVE 2027 is built to underline that—think fresh arrangements, extended outros, and those sing-along hooks the audience knows by heart.
The venue advantage
Arena 8888 Sofia is Bulgaria’s flagship indoor arena at 1 Asen Yordanov Blvd. Opened in 2011 and renamed for sponsorship in 2024, it’s engineered for large-scale concerts with a general capacity of over 12,000 and configurations reaching close to 18,000 for music events. The hall features telescopic stands, a high‑resolution central video cube and modern back‑of‑house facilities, so sightlines and production values match the ambition of a show built for scale.
- Expect a live band and cinematic visuals designed for a multi-camera stage—more than just a club backing track experience.
- Career-spanning repertoire with new arrangements from the “Turbulence” and “Akula” eras alongside classics.
- Emphasis on vocals and audience interaction; Emilia is known for building medleys and dynamic transitions that keep energy high.
